After all the brouhaha surrounding #GamerGate and the controversy surrounding the decision that SXSW made in removing some #GamerGate panels, I wanted to remind my gentle reader -- yes, you -- that there are warm hugs online and not just slaps, punches, yells, screams, and assaults online.

Grip strength is essential for kettlebells and riding.

I have been so distant from the site for a while because I have been obsessed with rowing a rented Single around 11-miles up and down the Potomac river.

As someone who works alone, swinging a kettlebell for 90 seconds every hour is exactly what I need to break up a techie, sedentary, life. Starting with just 12-minutes every day. Really, easier said than done.

I am finally doing it. After I burnt out my knees by going from zero to forty-five minutes of spin class in a day and then every day, I allowed myself to recover and now I am slowly building myself back up to committing sixty-minutes every evening to Maffetone rowing on my Concept2 indoor rower.

I spend more time at the gym than I care to mention. Just about every night, sometimes every other. I am about to go now. Its not as stultifying as it sounds.

Historically, I have been Mr. Steady State Cardio.

Introducing the coolest accessory available for the Concept 2 Indoor Rower (tm*). Become your own biggest Fan! Now make the Indoor Rower work to your advantage by channeling the airflow in an important direction, toward YOU! Creates more airflow than a 14" fan, and uses no electricity. FAQ: How long does it take to install? The first time will take a couple minutes, with practice about 1 minute . Do I need any tools? No tools are required for installation, and no modifications are needed. Why is this better than my fan? It uses no electricity and will go anywhere that your Indoor Rower will, or to the gym with you. I produce about 100 watts, will it cool me? Yes, I have tested it down to 50 Watts, the airflow in the picture is at a 2:30 Pace (100 watts). Can I adjust the airflow? Yes, by rotating the CBreeze about the perimeter of the fan cage, the airflow can be directed as desired. Will it make me faster? Only if used in conjunction with a well planned training program. Since you stay cooler you can train comfortably, longer. (The Marketing people said to just say "Yes.") Does it make Erging easier or harder? If you are currently overheating, I'd have to say easier, or at least more pleasant. What is it made out of? The CBreeze is made of a high quality nylon fabric, selected for durability. Can I still stand my erg on end for storage? Yes, it is flexible so storage options are not changed. Will it work with my Model A, B or D? The current model works with the Model C, D and B. Here is a picture for fitting to the Model B. (BBreeze) (Photo courtesy of "seat5") Do I change my Damper setting? To keep your previous Drag Factor you will need to change the damper setting with the CBreeze installed. Press the [OK] + [Rest] buttons to display "Drag", pull a few strokes and adjust the damper until the desired Drag Factor is displayed.
